after-competition feedback:

nice things:
- theme - I really love themed CTFs, it makes each edition distinct and memorable :)
- overall organization
- Taipei is awesome
- multiple bugs per challenge with incremental hardness

less-nice things:
- Hidden scoreboard on the second day - this makes no sense, the only outcome is that the competition gets really boring for the players, it kills all the competitiveness and excitement, you feel like solving tasks alone.
- `market` challenge didn't make any sense - it was a total blackbox and pure guessing what's on the other side. This could be a really good challenge if it was about betting on teams' score on the next CTF round. The prices seemed totally random. An example: on the second day everyone had to sell their stock, because otherwise it would be worth almost nothing at the end of the CTF. Yet the prices were growing until the very end, instead of rapidly falling.
- It was too easy to steal other's exploits and patches - developing them on your own rarely paid off.
- Music at the afterparty was much too loud - it was hard to talk with each other.
